Now Gordon, you're bringing grievances here that do not belong in this group. *Please let's not do that in urg! Otherwise your typo will not appear to be a typo, will it? ;-) Bravo, the last thing we want on urg is dissent, we have had that, fortunately only in small bursts in the past. I know that all of us urglers do not want that sort of thing again, we all get on well, and many of us know each other in real life. I am not interested in fights on other groups, I don't want to see it mentioned here. Judith |

"PK" wrote in message ... "Pete Stockdale" wrote in message ... I consider snipping to be more offensive than repeating the original post unless it was of an oversize or offensive nature. 1. Failure to snip wastes my time Snipping wastes the poster's time. You don't have to read the whole post. |

"Pete Stockdale" wrote in message ... "Sacha" wrote in message ... In this group, it's usually quite easy to snip the irrelevant bits from a post because it's so often a specific question or answer that matters and that can be isolated. On other groups that might not be the case. Personally, I prefer this group's custom of snipping because trawling through yards of old material to read one sentence at the end is irritating and silly. In the end, I find I avoid posts from the people who do that. So, obviously my opinion is different to yours but that's the way of newsgroups, too. -- Fairly stated - back to glasshouse for me then. I'll see you in there :-) Mary |

I think that's making the assumption that your time is worth more than my time, which it is not, to me, especially if I have to scroll through inches of verbiage just to see if there's anything worth reading at the end of it. I don't mean you personally, Mary but the non-snipper versus the snipper. It's rather like people who are always late but who appear to think they're so busy and important others will wait around for them. I don't do that and I don't read people who fail to snip irrelevant material. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

Not irrelevant, merely what has been posted already and is then repeated many times to no purpose, other than clogging up the system. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |
